FOREWORD

The following collection contains our INFORMATION BULLETINS for representatives from no. V
22 onwards. Older bulletins can only be provided on special request.

Missing numbers are due to invalid info bulletins having been removed from the collection.

Please observe that information bulletins may lose their validity after some time since they are
no longer up to date.

Please ask us if you are in doubt about the validity of older information bulletins.

SCHWING releases once a year a list of info bulletins that have become invalid. This list is pu-
blished in the form of an information bulletin for representatives. See V 33 as an example.

Some information bulletins are available only in German since they were produced for the Ger-
man market only.

Some of the information bulletins are applicable to special machines only.

Fan motors VKE,VVW 1999 / 03

VENTING BORES

The electrical fan motor of the reinforced hy-

draulic oil cooler (Fig. 1) has two venting bores
on the underside.

The fan motors of the oil coolers mainly built for

the US also have two venting bores. The cor-
rect fitting position is marked here by the word
DOWN engraved on the casing (Fig. 2).

In some machines it was found that these

bores did not point downwards due to wrong
installation of the motor. In these cases, water
may penetrate into the motors and destroy Fig. 1
them by corrosion.

Please check all available machines for proper

positioning of the bores.

If the bores do not point downwards, remove

the protective grilles and refit in the proper po-
sition. On account of the symmetric arrange-
ment of the fastening holes, refitting can be
done without any problems.

COOLING AIR FLOW

Fig. 2
Refitting of the grilles should be used as an
occasion for checking that the air flows in the
correct direction through the coolers:

The air must flow through the coolers in the

direction of the motors (Fig. 3). In the opposite
direction, the coolers will not work at full cooling
performance.

If necessary, change the sense of rotation of

the motors by connecting the two wires of the
the supply cable with opposite polarity.

MPS T E C 6, V V W 1999 / 04

Some concrete pumps equipped with the Mini-
Pause Control System (MPS) have suffered
from malfunctions.
These malfunctions are characterized by the
pressure reduction being either not active at all
or active all the time.
Besides incorrect operation, the malfunctions
may be caused by a technical fault in the valve
cartridge 10175450 (position1, Fig. 1).
At the factory, the following remedial action is
taken:
Check on this occasion
that the machine operator is informed about
how to use the system properly. Correct
handling of the system is described in the
Owner's Manual and in our Technical Infor-
mation K 159 which was designed to pro-
vide further detailed information for our cus-
tomers in this matter.
that the hydraulic oil used is not contami-
nated. Dirt particles in the oil might cause
the valve cartridge to jam.

1. To relieve the valve cartridge, a 1.3 mm

nozzle will from now on be installed in con-
trol port (X3) of the valve.

2. In addition to this measure, stronger valve

cartridges will be used ca. after week 16 .

To modifiy older machines, proceed as follows:

1. Install a 1.3 mm nozzle in control port X3 as

a preventive measure. For this modifica-
tion, you need the following material:
Fig. 1
1 nozzle Id.-no. 10012087

1 sealing ring Id.-no. 10003967 1 - valve cartridge

2. If malfunctions have already occurred, use 2 - 1.3 mm nozzle

our modifcation kit Id.-no. 10180333.
3 - sealing ring
Besides the above nozzle and sealing ring,
this kit includes a reinforced valve cartridge.

PRESSURE SETTING FOR AGITATOR

HYDRAULICS

The pressure limit of the agitor hydraulic circuit

in the machines referred to above had hitherto
been adjusted to 200 bars.

The possible transfer of high torque values in-

volved, may in extreme cases cause damage to
the agitator (e.g. agitator paddle blocking).

For this reason, you are requested to reduce the

pressure setting to 125 bars.

The pressure-limiting valve is located in the left

connection plate of the control block for con- Fig. 1

Observe the different positions of the setscrews

in pumps of different nominal size (Fig. 1 + 2):

For pressure cut-off setting, only the following

setscrews are needed:

DR = pressure cut-off

Vgmin = minimum discharge flow (Qmin)

Do not readjust the other screws! Fig. 2

 Page 2 of 3

Observe the correct working sequence:

1. Install a non-return valve

(operating pressure 350 bars)
into the "P" line of each hy-
draulic pump.
Use NG 25 or NG 30 valves
depending on the nominal
width of the hose.

2. Set the concrete pump to the maximum num-

ber of strokes.
Fig. 1
Count the strokes and compare to the tech-
nical characteristics table. The maximum num-
ber of strokes must be reached.

3. Close the ballcocks 1+2 (Fig. 1) at the con-

crete pump control block (pressure check-
ing).

4. Move the left pumping

piston (viewed in pump-
ing direction) to its fore-
most limit stop.
Fig. 2
This is important since
positioning of the piston
at the opposite end leads
to false results due to the
restricted tank connec-
tion.

5. Turn the "DR" setscrew (Fig. 2 resp. 3) of the

pressure cut-off against block.
Fig. 3
6. Set pressure-limiting valve DB 1 of the con-
crete pump to maximum operating pressure
(Pmax)* (Fig. 4).

The drive engine must run up.

* Set values see "Technical Characteristics" or

hydraulic circuit diagram.

Fig. 4

7. Set the pressure cut-off "DR" to a value

20 bars below (Pmax)* (Fig. 1+2).

If the pressure cutoff cannot be adjusted

(pressure not dropping), turn out the Vg min
screw approximately between a half and a
full turn.

8. Set minimum delivery rate (Vgmin).

To do so:
Fig. 1
- Set the concrete pump to minimum num-
ber of strokes.

- Use the Vgmin screw to set a value ap-

prox. 10 bars below the value of the
pressure cut-off.

Example:

If "DB1" = 300 bars*,

then "DR" = 280 bars,

Fig. 2
then Vgmin = 270 bars.

9. Set the pressure cut-off* at "pilot valve"

For checking:
(the values are not the exact values, but only
tendencies)
The value measured at port 'M1' of the hy-

0-2 bars at maximum delivery rate.
Beyond 4 bars at port 'Y', the pressure at M1
rises proportionally.
Beyond 8 bars at port 'Y' as measured at
'MX1' (Fig. 2) or 'MY' (Fig. 3), the pressure at
port 'M1' of the hydraulic pump (Fig. 1) now
corresponds to approx 1/3 of the high pres-
sure and continues to rise.
Fig. 1
This is a sign that the pump swivels back and
that the delivery rate reduces. Delivery rate control valve single-circuit hydraulics:
The high pressure value can be measured at (single-circuit hydraulics / double-circuit hydraulics)
port 'M' (Fig. 1) of the hydraulic pump or at the
concrete pump pressure gauge.
Example: 'M' = 180 bars / 'M1' = approx. 60 bars.

Reconnect the line to port 'Y' of the regulator

REPLACEMENT OF OUTRIGGER
CYLINDERS

In different machines, the outrigger cylinders
have been found to be leaking.
From now on, the machines will be equipped
with improved hydraulic cylinders.
You are therefore requested to replace the de-
fective cylinders as described below with this
improved version.
Please observe the following rules:
Use utmost care in performing the work and
use only original material from SCHWING.
It is absolutely indispensable to prevent dirt
from penetrating into the hydraulic system:

support using a lifting device.

Detach inner tube 1 from hydraulic cylinder 2

by driving out the dowels 4 and by removing Fig. 2
the pin at the lower end 3 (Fig. 2).

Important:
The pins and the dowels in the upper and lower
cylinder fastening are not identical and must
therefore not be interchanged.
Pins 3 and 6 have a close sliding fit in their
bores and can therefore be removed easily.
If this is not the case, the reason is perhaps that
they are not properly load-relieved.
If necessary, use a "soft" copper punch and not
a steel punch for driving out the pin.

Align the pin so that the two bores in the front

side of the pin are at right angles to the longi-
tudinal axis of the cylinder. The face with bores
must point away from the machine to the out-
side (Fig. 1).

Drive the pin "A" with a plastic hammer into

the bore and check the alignment by introduc-
ing a thin punch into the bores of the dowels.

Drive in a dowel "B" from both sides.

Insert the inner tube and the cylinder into the

Repeat the bleeding cycle, if needed.
Hold the end of the hose firmly in place to
prevent jerking.

Extend the supporting cylinder slowly to the

limit stop. To do so, just move the control
lever only by a few millimeters in the precision
control range.

Important:
As the air accumulates in the upper part of
the rod compartment, the rod side can only
be bled correctly, if the supporting cylinder
is extended completely. Fig. 1
See next page.

Thereafter, move the lever "Cylinder retract" on

the stabilizer control block. Use the precision con-
trol range for this movement, too.

Hydraulic oil and air are displaced from the rod-

side line and leave the system at the end of the
bleeding line. See next page.

V36-1EN
 Page 6 of 7

Bleeding procedure

If the "Extend stabilizer" movement is activated,

the piston compartment of the cylinder fills up with
oil (Fig. 1).

The cylinder moves downwards. Hydraulic oil and

air are displaced from the rod-side line and leave
the system at the end of the bleeding line.

For the locked-up air to escape completely it is

important to extend the cylinder to the limit
stop (Fig. 2).

For bleeding the rod-side line it is sufficient to

activate the movement "Retract stabilizer" on the
control block and to let ca.1 liter of oil flow via the
opened bleeding connection into the collecting
recipient (Fig. 3).

MODIFICATION OF HYDRAULIC OIL

RESERVOIR ID no. : 10198249

Under certain unfavourable circumstances it may
be the case that the level in the hydraulic oil re-
servoir is lower than the return line connection
from the emgency operation control block.
The oil reflowing from the emergency operation
control block will then hit the oil surface with the
result that the oil in the reservoir will then start
foaming.
To prevent oil foaming, all new reservoirs are
equipped from now on with an internal return
flow pipe (10307241) which injects the reflowing
oil below the reservoir level (Fig. 1).
Install the machine in working position and
slew the folded boom aside.
Prop up the boom package to prevent lower-
ing in case of trouble.
It is absolutely indispensable to prevent dirt
from penetrating into the hydraulic system:
Empty the oil reservoir and collect the oil
in a perfectly clean reservoir, if you want
to fill it back into the reservoir later on.
Clean all connections before dismantling.

Machines already delivered can be retrofitted with Close detached connections immediately

For cleaning, the reservoir can be flushed or

cleaned with a steam-jet device depending on
the available equipment.

To prevent corrosion, the reservoir must be

dried thoroughly after cleaning.

If the reservoir is not installed immediately after

the modification, the inside must be preserved
by spraying hydraulic oil on the walls and by
storing the reservoir in a dry place.
